-
Remove the overflow

-
Measure hidden moisture

-
Handle affected materials
A hard concrete floor may be cleaned, but a soaked cardboard box cannot be treated the same way. The crew records what leaves the room.

Dry and verify
The drying log tracks progress at the same measured locations. Equipment remains where the structure still needs help releasing moisture.
